| If you want to do more than simply use Logic to improve the audio in your video projectsif you want to start actually creating and producing music with it-this Apple-certified guide provides the key. Whether you're a composer, producer, songwriter, engineer, studio programmer or simply want to create and produce pro-quality music in your Logic-based home studio, you'll find all the self-paced, step-by-step instruction you need here to begin creating your audio master works immediately. As both a professional musician and a former employee of eMagic and Apple (the former and current makers of the software), author David Dvorin knows Logic like no one else. Here, he uses project-based tutorials to reveal all of its secrets, including its newest: advanced DSP techniques and the ability to layer MIDI instruments and split channels. In short order you'll be scoring and composing; jamming with Logic's software instruments; employing advanced mixing, editing, and production techniques; and more. A companion CD includes trial software and the lesson files needed to complete the book's exercises.
We are lucky to live during one of the most exciting periods in the music production industry. Just a few short years ago, you would need a studio filled with synthesizers, hardware effects processors, mixing consoles, and expensive multi-track tape machines to accomplish what you now can do in a small, project-based environment with a computer, an audio interface, and the right software. It's a good time to be a musician.
Apple Pro Training Series: Advanced Logic Pro 7 is intended to show experienced composers, arrangers, and producers how to expand and enhance their skills by working with real projects in real-world scenarios. You'll learn how to increase the efficiency of your production workflow, accelerate editing tasks, and create and manage multiple takes effectively. You'll work on refining your mixing techniques, manipulating tempo and pitch, creating notated parts and scores, and scoring for video and film. You'll discover powerful techniques for multi-track recording and explore the limitless potential of Logic's audio instruments.
Whether you're tweaking a song structure, applying effects processing, or editing audio and MIDI tracks, this book will give you the insider tips that will make your time with Logic Pro 7 more productive and more creative.
